A Weekly Conversation with the Voice

November 2016

11/12/2016

When can someone speak loudly with passion, without selling or telling? When can someone convey urgency without introducing fear? When can someone convey importance without being right? When can someone, in deep concern ask “Please listen to me, please consider my words? “

Oh, it gets so mixed up when there is not listening. Listening is the foundation for all possibilities and listening is the foundation for change. Change always starts with listening.

Notice when someone is coming to you wrapped in sincerity with something to say that is deeply concerning them. Stop what your are doing and listen.

Oh my, so many people want me to listen, to their urgent pleas – it is all too much.

Voice and Openness

In many of our conversations we have brought forward the importance, significance, and very basic principles of growth and healing, as central to the experience of being human.

This is quickly followed by our conversations on voice and gifts. Voice and Gifts are the central movements of human growth. Voice is the expression of being — of who you be.

Now each person is unique, with special gifts. Gifts are made for sharing. Communities rise and fall based on the sharing of gifts. They are diminished, when the rules they create do not encourage people to share their gifts.

The creating of carbon copies parent to child; or the pressure of tribe members to be all the same,; or the suppression of the voices of a community of children, of women, of people who are different — is dangerous!

Yes dangerous… because the power of the growth embodied in the development of voice and the discovery of gifts is so significant. The most realistic example is the flow of a river --- it will not be denied. Yes you can build your dams and still, the river will not be denied. If your dams are not consistently maintained, revised, reinforced – they will yield to the flow of energy of the rivers.

When voice is suppressed and gifts are denied --- pressure begins to build. With humans it will be resolved either now or later. The pressure is unyielding. When someone is told to be someone else – to act a certain way, think a certain way, feel a certain way — a small dam is created in the flow of the person’s life. The breath changes and the experience of possibilities diminishes.

Yes everyone’s life is a river with a unique flow it and with the great possibility of nurturing others. You can measure the loss if you want in the absence of nourishment for people in your communities.

It has become a common practice in your communities, in all countries around the world for voices to be rank ordered in terms of importance – often organized by wealth, resources, power and position, race and sex. Understand this is a dam.

The flow is blocked and eventually the flow will have its way. This is the flow of growth of each human being unique whole and rich in possibility. Often you see revolutions as the dam bursts and the voices will no longer be denied in a community.

However you wish to describe what is next offered is fine. Change the words to suit the window, which you look through. The blocking of the flow, of human growth – of an individual human being developing her voice and discovering her gift has come under the leadership of men.

For millennia men have organized communities and success is often built on the limiting the voices of men and mostly women. The ways of these communities say: Let us find the best and recognize them. Let the best lead, let the best be in charge. Let people compete – and most sadly let this start with the children. Make the children compete for a limited set of resources. Lets find the best children to go to the best schools

Now these systems of living in communities over millennia have led to a common tragedy. This tragedy is best described in a simple set of words – the quality of a child’s life is determined by whether the child is a him or her and where this child is born and what race this child is identified by.

This is the sum total of your accomplishment as a planet, for what matter is the accumulation of wealth? Today, for each soul that is born it makes a difference where the soul arrives on your planet – the differences can be described by the nourishment that is available to the child.

This is a defining characteristic of how your planet for now – will you make it different? You are the creators and all the resources are here for you to create what ever you will.

Now this is not easy because, even though all the resources are present. Energetically, you are all here together even if it does not feel that way. Even if communities / countries act independently. Their actions saying we are separate, alone, best, central.

The central movements of this conversation are:

You are all here together. You are the creators. All the resource you need to solve any situation are currently present and available. What will you do?

The sum total of your accomplishments, your history, as a movement across multiple millennia can be described in the statement “It truly makes a difference where a child is born” – It makes a difference how much nourishment a child receives, and whether she will develop her voice and discover her gifts.

For a child the central movement of growth is the development of her voice and the discovery of her gifts. For an adult the central movement of growth is the development of voice and discovery of gifts. For a community the central movement is the development of voice and discovery of gifts.

This simple process of growth – of each human being developing his or her voice and discovering his or her gifts is irresistible and unyielding. This simple process of growth is your birth right as a human being.

Forget or ignore no soul regardless of age, and pay special attention to your children. There are no absolute final or ultimate measures of your success. AND yet it does make a difference where your children are born. Change this one thing and you change everything. Be aware of leaders who do not surround themselves with children and nourish them.

Remember just because I speak words with passion, your free will is always respected. You are the creators what will you do?
